Posts I've Made

I am still eating dairy. I will eliminate for a few days and see what happens. I think
it may have been the shampoo because I stopped using it on Friday and the issue has somewhat subsided but I will try the non dairy for a few days about the the sinuses. If dairy has to go I will be a bit crazy then because I do not like the soy alternatives, yuk.

Thanks for all of your suggestions and I think the last one from Bergee sounds like
what's been happening. I also have massive post nasal drip and dry mucous in my sinuses, i just went to ear, nose, throat doc because I always feel that I am gongested in my sinuses but nothing ever comes out, etc. He said it was dry mucous. I am sure that is what's happening below and maybe I have been ingesting gluten by mistake, I must confess I still was using a shampoo from Kiels that had wheat protein in it but I guess I was being ignorant thinking that I wasn't and didn't ingest it so i will stop using that too, any idea's for a shampoo? Again, thank you all for your responses and I really am thankful for being able to share about the crazy things going on with my body. I am 36 and some days I feel much older but now I am a little bit wiser, thanks, Bill

It seems to be a light yellowish color, sticky and that foul smell so maybe mucous but this is something that started after I have been on the diet but seems to be getting worse. I can't think of anything out of the ordinary I have been eating and I only use equal for sugar sub and no olesta or anything like that. I seem to be going through a bad phase here, I have been gluten-free since march and in the beginning felt much better but now seem to be on that constipated and then the runs cycle again so somethings acting up. I don't think I have ingested any gluten as of late. Guess I'll call the doc soon.

My story is strange. When I was 19 , my first signs of a Gastro problem in college I
went from 215 pounds to 170 pounds. Over the years I have always been feeling like I was hungry even when I had eaten and i thought it was because of having to go to the bathroom almost immediatly after I ate something.

Now that I am diagnosed celiac I cannot lose weight. I thought I would lose weight after the gluten-free diet started but I actually went from 208-216. It stinks, I was expecting the opposite to happen with all the breads and pasta's etc gone. I think I am going to cut way back on sugar as well and see if that helps.

As always thanks for listening
